Atlus USA Teaser Trailer: Luminous Arc 2

[afflictionwwe]

excited for this im picking it up this christmas. atlus makes the best rpgs and there is always a lot of charm in their games

[Hunterdude893]

on this game's website, Ace told me to buy it............... i just couldn't say no

[Nescium]

This games website has the most interesting form of getting walpapers.

You have to play PUZZLES

How cool is that?!♫

[Sieg15]

I really enjoyed this game. Still hoping for the third game!

[MalibuWinxangel]

Its so stupid, that the game doesnt have a german licsense.

[PokeTwilight]

@MalibuWinxangel Blame your country =.=

[Icekat1047]

@MalibuWinxangel since the NDS is not region locked, you can just buy the english version from amazon or ebay or something, and then you can play it ^^

[MalibuWinxangel]

@Icekat1047

ive already know it, and i have already play it

i have a SD Card and lots of games in english, im glad that im fluent in this language xD

[Rand3mAnclrew]

im kinda sad we will not see anymore alph D:

[Sepharite]

Do I need to play the first one to understand this

[dragontmp44]

@Sepharite for all I know, Nope.. I just got the 2nd one

[Cyburn2005]

just started this game, definitely an improvement from the Luminous Arc 1

[jeffnindo]

The character who used Aqua Squall reminds me of Luna from Lunar: SSSC

[Liloreema]

Her name is Luna :)

[Supermaster4567]

That´s why i love Atlus, tons and tons of Anime-Styled goodness, Japanese tracks, cute girls, awesome sotries and incredible gameplay.

[mystic2jens]

ok, is it just me or does that boy look a awfull lot like Alph from Luminous arc 1 , only with dark hair ? :S

[dd3r3ck]

@mystic2jens no shit, it's in a parallel universe. that's basically Alph. and Althea is basically Lucia.

[mystic2jens]

ooohhhh, its all making sense now :P

[EdwardElric112]

by the looks of it, i'd say it kinda reminds me of final fantasy tactics advanced (1st one for game boy advanced) but either way, i might have to pick up a copy of this if it IS like ffta.

[THEPRINCEOFALLSAYINS]

atlus makes the best rpg games

[ralx225b]

@THEPRINCEOFALLSAYINS Hey Atlus doesn't make the games. They publish them and also get the rights to localize the games in english and other languages

[megaman13689]

I love Atlus! They're my favorite gaming company for many reasons:

- They know what makes an RPG great.

- They're always trying new concepts that are almost always amazing.

- They keep Japanese tracks!

- I have yet to see a half-assed game released by Atlus. They take their time.

- They localize almost everything from Japan, which is a very, very good thing.

[toruwer]

fucking sick ass series loved both games atlus rocks

[0DeathWish0]

the main character looks like Lelouch frm Code Geass...

[killifish2000]

If he was a million times less attractive. I think I'd almost go gay for Lelouch.

[TheHanyouDemonSlayer]

i HAVE this game! i bought it a while ago...and i got to the part where i had to defeat Karen, and her group but i lost and i never saved it so now i can't get past beating Fatima! Chapter 3 if you didn't know..!

[DemonmachinE]

The art in this game really reminds me of the Gust games like Mana Khemia, and especially Ar Tonelico (look at the armour).

[kaizer3000]

All my friends said "Dont buy NDS, they're fragile and only produces dumb games!!"

But I bought the NDS anyway...and NEVER REGRET IT!!

In fact, I find NDS games to be quite fun!!

[KyuubiNarutor]

I guess they think that ALL games with sprites suck badly :O Seriously, i'm ADDICTED to Luminous Arc 2!

[kaizer3000]

I think my friens comparing the DS games with super processing consoles such as PS3 or something...but even so they have no idea why the DS is so friggin fun: GAMEPLAY.

[Perseus3327]

hehe so true~ ppl forget that graphics were worse waaaaay bak during the age of gba color!! xD

[lKajiol]

You sir, have good taste in games, your friends?... Not so much.

[kaizer3000]

Even till today I STILL FIND NDS games are quite fun...sure the graphics cant compare with PSP or any console rivals....but the touch screen n wifi multiplayer is ingenius!! Not to mention the most of the games' gameplay for DS is incomparable!!

Oh how i wished Monster Hunter would be released on NDS console....that'd be so friggin awesome playing wifi multiplayer!!

[thereallordlinkthe1]

@kaizer3000 i like psp better because ds has mostly kids games

[SnapSunny]

@thereallordlinkthe1 No, more like, half of the games are kids games, and that even includes Mario Bros., LoZ, Pokemon...and if you don't like Mario bros and LoZ, you have poor taste in quality

[thereallordlinkthe1]

@SnapSunny i just dont like kids games, nothing to it.

[IchigoEx2]

i got the Art Book though the Soundtrack CD too the guy at the store gave em to me when i bought it i didn't even know they had that x.x the art rocks

[kiketsuu]

My mom beat me up for playing this game, but I still play anyway!

[peterthestrange]

what?

[4kicks01]

I loved this game, but unfortunately I only found out about it long after it was released, and could no longer get the "pre-order only artbook"....wish they would continue to print them and sell it separately for those who still want one but unfortunately missed out.

[CandySoup]

I bought it yesterday and it had the art book + soundtrack :D

The art book is still so friggin damn awesome, for the girl info they even put her bra size LOL :D

[Evangelionchan]

I LOVED THIS GAME Beat it 3 times and still playin it.

[LordODFlize]

Just beat the game today. So glad I bought it. This is one of the best games I have played in a long time. Glad I watched this video...it's what convinced me to buy it.

[BabyDolphinGirl]

should i train althea to become really strong? my rina is lvl 13, and althea is like...7 or 8 and she is so weak xD

[TheRealDialUp]

Well, I beat the whole game without having to re-do anything a single time. It was very easy for me, so I can't help much. I would just say if you are stuck on a chapter, go do side quests until you level up a lot. And by chapter 12, man, you should be in your 20's... And LOL! It's Josie, not Mewoth. XD Do you have AIM or something. Or if you want help go to the chat room I advertised a few days ago. It's for Luminous Arc 2...

[BabyDolphinGirl]

oh lol hehee, cuz when he talks, he says meowth~~i am stuck in battle....should i start over on the game? and i have yahoo,gmail and hotmail....my characters are like 12 or 11, the main character is the strongest...(roland)

[TheRealDialUp]

Uhm, I don't know. I would just keep trying until I could beat the chapter. Then as soon as you do, go to the guild and do side quests a lot. I mean, I didn't have to grind my first time around, but if you need to gain some levels, do it that way. I have all level 99's now. XD

[IchigoEx2]

Lv Althea Shes Good

[IchigoEx2]

Oh and If You Can't Beat the One With Mattias , Fatima and Josie , the Key is to Use Roland To Approach Them (With Water Engagement) The Water Element Adds Res (Magic Def) this Reduces Dmg you take from them , Side Note , Don't Approach Them until you Clear off The Lil Guys . They won't move until your within a certain range of them . NOTE : Don't Group Your Characters all together or Josie will Lower Stats , Well he does it even if it's just 1 but that way you have less people with - Stats

[TheRealDialUp]

Anyone who has this game and thinks they're good at Luminous Arc 2 come here and talk to us to get some Wi-Fi matches going.

meebo . com/room/atlusla2

You don't need an account or anything, this is just an open chat room available to anyone. Just come here to play some Wi-Fi. See you there!

[BabyDolphinGirl]

I might get this game. Do you think it's good?

[TheRealDialUp]

Honestly, one of the best SRPG's I've played. Definitely worth the money. I'm so addicted.

[BabyDolphinGirl]

I bought it, but I cannot pass CHapter 12's battler...The one with Mewoth, Fatima and that guy with the demon blade...(forgot his name) and how do i do wi-fi?

[Rozencraft]

excellent game

[midnightstrawberry36]

[mogMaster11]

[omnimon64]

[Raykomaru]

It´s Video Game for Playstation 2?

[BloodyNeko12]

no for the nintendo ds

[VinalG4ce]

I want to buy this game. But I wanted to know, can I change the main Characer's name? If not what is his/her name?

[BloodyNeko12]

yes u can!!! at points u can switch them.. also play as all the players at one point

[VinalG4ce]

Oh, now that's sweeet!

[BloodyNeko12]

yeah its a really fun game

[VinalG4ce]

Yeah I'm going to buy it next time I go to Bandar(town)

[mogMaster11]

I personally want to see a LA2 tourny! cause as soon as i got this game couldnt put it down...i finished it for the third time now, so now i want to kick some ass on wi-fi! anyone who wants to trade friend codes or just have a match msg me. and just cause the game kills off afew charecters..doesnt mean you gotta be mad beccause steiner was cool and all but was going insane and anyone could tell steven was gonna die..you just get a feeling that certain charecters will die XD

[kiketsuu]

Any Luminous Arc 2 players here got WiFi and don't use AR?

[joe9809]

will this game come out in UK?

[LASKMOON]

check out the opening here!!

[Balgorxz]

Answering rice rpgs anime-style with this deep plots :Fire Emblem Series, Tales Series, Manas Series...

[Yamazaru90]

you forgot kingdom hearts

[champgary]

Can u vs ppl on wi fi around the world without registering them if u can tell me plz

[Rice8Azn]

I just got this game two days ago!! Its too awesome! It has more room for the stylus to actually touch the desired location this time..the first one was a bit cramped- BUT IT STILL RULED! I hope there is a 3rd one xD...I LOVE THESE TYPE OF GAMES. Oh and does anyone know any other games with the same style as this game?

[Yamazaru90]

final fantasy tactics advanced 1 and 2 are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than luminous arc. actually I just bought the first one and the second does look bad ass but in the first one (Luminous Arc) it starts off extremely slow and the graphics suck ass but it got better and I really like it but graphics wise and customization wise ffta2 wins

[roman0romano]

I'm not sure if it's the same but check out summon night : twin age

[Mitsukichan242]

Well, if you are looking for the same type of strategy RPG game, there is:

Disgaea

Final Fantasy Tactics

Fire Emblem

Jeanne D'Arc

[skyminex]

omfg i hate atlus, apart from bman

[garc4475]

Atlus Is So underapreciated.

[ILOVEBUKKAKE69]

Yeah /v/ on 4chan insults Atlus even though they play most of the games.

[talesoftheabyssrocks]

I hope this one actually allows you to have relationships with the other characters. The Intermission thing was neat in the first game, but I hated seeing awesome intermissions between two Alph and another girl, which obviously meant they had feelings for one another, and at the end of the game, forcing Alph to stick with Lucia.

[phantomlink123]

I LOVE THIS SONG DAMN, I may actually get it but seeing as i have never plated the Luminous Arc series i'm kind of spectical so can anyone help me decide?

[HunterXZelos]

decide what?

it's just a normal strategy RPG game...like Disgaea

cept it has a great story, great seiyuus in the japanese version...(they haxed the seiyuu budget in Japan for sure...the gameplay's....repeatative but I just love the story, the second game has alot more systems and multiple endings and side stories which the first game wasn't so good at

[HunterXZelos]

now I HAVE to buy this game again in English...

*looks at beaten Japanese version*

oh well =]

[RemyK313]

Man, I wish Atlus would start publishing Cave's shmups again :(

[Kuriboheater]

I have this in Japanese but I can't wait to get the US version. Btw Us version comes with limited edition soundtrack!!

[oliverclive]

Luminous arc was awesome!!!!

[TheMoogleKing93]

Looks like another good game, good strategy elements, good story and busty anime girls.

[Demonhornz]

And here i was expecing Lucia or someone from the first to at least make a cameo.

[TheMoogleKing93]

IIRC the two girls from the Witch Village are in it.

[ForteEXEv2]

yeah, Alice and Therese, =]

[Crisis7]

You mean the lolis.

[NutterButter981]

OMFG Can't wait!

And yeah, it's similar to FFtactics more than anything, concerning the battle style.

[AngelicXNeoAzN]

has anyone seen the ENGLISH rom for luminous arc 2?

i swear i've looked everywhere, posted in all forums...

if anyone has seen it, please reply or send me a msg

[Ruetou]

how in the world could there be an english rom for a game that isn't even out yet.

stop being cheap and just buy the game.

[Demonhornz]

After November 22, the english versionw ill be out, so possibly in the same day or week, the rom should be out.

[Anemite]

it could be cool if a anime of OVA of those games appear (like Tales of Phantasia OVAS)

[HiryuIIIV]

Just out on a limb, this has nothing to do with the first one does it? considering its about 400 years later...lol.

Wonder if their are any descendants from LA 1, =/ pretty obvious Lucia is going to have a child, and its pretty obvious Leon has a relationship with someone. Dont see much hope for Nikolai....

[hihikatamari]

I like the story and plot twist of the 1st Luminous Arc...but the gameplay is kind of bland

[gatotsu911]

Agreed. Hopefully the sequel will give a much-needed edge to the gameplay while still delivering the engaging story and lovable characters (and of course, first-rate soundtrack) from the first one.

[B4ULoveShine]

This is the first game I ever wanted to pre-order, since its announcement. As of this past Wednesday, 6th of August 2008, LA 2 is now available for pre-order at Gamestop.

PS: I immediately pre-ordered the game, once I found out about its pre-order availability.

[markthewhalekiller]

Err, how does this game play out exactly? Is it like fire emblem, but with vertical terrain, and special moves?

[gatotsu911]

It's closer to Final Fantasy Tactics Advance, if anything.

[TomozaAkashi]

its more like final fantasy tactics but its got an original story of course its worht buyin at least i think it is...

[Ruetou]

no its not. its more like disgaea.

and yes its worth buying.

[rebirthangel]

Actually, to me it looks more like Shining Force, since that it's optional to play a main character only team, and not required to make any units.

Disgaea is too crazy, and this don't look all that crazy.

[OmnomTheDevourer]

@TomozaAkashi Actually, the story has some simularities with Final Fantasy IV.

[RedDragonSlayer1988]

I liked LA1, this is probably going to be even better~

[wolfguy23]

The first one rocked, and I'm sure that this one will, too. It's because this game has three important things needed in any game:

1) A great plot

2) Excellent game features, including battle-play and character interaction

3) Very interesting characters, especially the Witches, which by the way are FINE ;)

[90786jiop]

wolf if you are a girl I want to marry you, if you are a boy please be my best friend THATS WHAT I THOUGHT OF LUMINOUS ARC TOO ((By the way, Vanessa=*boing* lol))

[HuskyShinobiChouji]

I thought Wolfguy23 would be a guy cause well...it says "guy" in his username lol

[KoyotoShadow]

The first Luminous Arc was pretty good...I'm looking forward to the next one. That's a great vid for it as well. :D

[newkid32208]

gah i can't get the link to the home page to work!!!

[bam061019]

looks great, but i hope the control is goin to be so much easier compare to the first one. i swear, the first luminous arc pissed me off so much...

[joshdudeness]

WOOT! i was hoping this game would come out in the US!

this made my day

[abdedragon]

cool trailer this is the first time i herd of this game

[jick6]

Never tried Luminous Arc, but this looks really cool. Kinda like Final Fantasy Tactics but, y'know, different. In a good way, I mean.

[kn00fmunky]

Final Fantasy Tactics A2 is pretty bad compared to Luminous Arc 1. The story is above descent and has interesting character and plot twists, kept me playing till the end. A2 on the other hand bored the shit out of me, the "law" system ruined it for me.

[kyuubinaruto]

A2 is the stuff man. You didn't have to follow the laws either, it was like a little difficulty boost for special items.

[l3o2828]

v Ditto , whats the name of the song?

[kof1lover]

Unlimited World, by Kana

[reccaman58]

what is the name of the song

[leozqual]

I would like to play it on PSP

[Tamim992000]

I think I'm in love!

[B4ULoveShine]

Should Gamestop start offering pre-orders, I'll do it ASAP.

[mitcjase]

1:13 Mai waifu?

[matman125]

Nice!

[SirGailardia]

I've been looking forward to this. The spell effects look a lot cooler than they did in the prequel!
